It is reported that the delightful Haringey Council has replaced the lesser known Newton, Darwin, Galileo with these much greater scientist

Why are they greater?
Because, it seems, they are black

Part of a scheme to make black kids proud of their heritage.

I just love these projects that incresae socail cohesion and tear down the racial barriers that separate us,

	"The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate"
